I can't seem to get the comment thing to work anymore

Ohhh, nice playing!! Really nice drum, you make all your drums? If you do, would ever consider selling them, I do really want to get a really good handmade drum right from the hands of a real wood worker! A nice man down the street form my self used to make pens, now I got him into liking to make tippers, now he makes tippers for myself, at a fair price, and a new site for his tippers, I don't remember for my life, so tell me when you'lll start selling!

[goattatto]

I do make my own drums and have been selling them since 1996. I also cure and condition my own goat skins. They can be checked out at the Davey Drum web site.

Nice playing, congratulations.

[goattatto]

Gosh, thanks.

Your bodhran duet of the Evergreen Band was very well done. That must be quite an audience pleaser.

[Thomdrum]

Love it! I do really need to get one of your currach (is that right?) drums.

[goattatto]

Thanks, the drum I am playing is not a Currach Style but is a 16" X 9" deep round drum. It really did develop a nice voice.

I notice you play one of Rob's drums. You sure can't go wrong there.

[ceolnaghra]

Surely if your a playing an Irish instrument you would play Irish music on it?

[Jorickhoofd]

nice deep voice it has there, lovely

[Thomdrum]

Actually I have a drum from Rob that is 15x8 very similar to what you have there in dimensions. Its a real boomer! A lambeg skin and 12 tuners.
